SHERINGHAM: A Canadian Heritage Story
“Sheringham – A Canadian Heritage Story is a ride through the unique and multi faceted history of the iconic lighthouse on the West Coast of British Columbia. Protecting mariners in the Salish Sea for almost 110 years, the storied tower, engine room and foreshore property (now parkland) is ripe with history, intrigue, and even a few ghost stories.”
Authored and researched by Rebecca Quinn and Society volunteers, SHERINGHAM is a 60-page book in full colour, covering the illustrious history of the iconic lighthouse at Sheringham Point. In 2015, the lighthouse was designated by the Federal Government as a Canadian Heritage Lighthouse Site.
Featuring over 60 photos, maps, journal entries, biographies of the light keepers and their families, info on junior light keepers, the land purchase, the construction of Sheringham Point Road, and the work of the Society, this book is a fun and interesting read for everyone.
